The critically acclaimed Japanese zombie horror-comedy movie One Cut of the Dead ( or Kamera o tomeru na!) has finally got its first US release date. Watch the trailer above.

The plot revolves around a group of filmmakers who are shooting a zombie movie, before they get attacked by real-life-zombies — or so you're led to believe, before the movie takes a huge twist.

The film has been called the “best zombie movie in recent memory” and has been compared to cult British comedy Shaun of the Dead. It also currently has a 100 percent critics review on Rotten Tomatoes, alongside a 95 percent audience score.

One Cut of the Dead is getting a limited release in select US cities from Friday, September 13. Head here for more information.
